@LEFT4BASS 5 лет назад

Ultimately, being in power isn’t about doing what’s right or wrong, but what’s necessary to stay in power. Those who won’t sacrifice their conscience to keep power tend to lose power. The result is that most politicians are concerned primarily with what keeps them in power. When they do good things for the people, it’s because it holds a benefit for them. But if your life and their power come into conflict, they’ll gladly take your life.

Stockholm Center For Freedom show that 191 journalists and media workers were in jail as of May 3, 2019. Of those in prison, 95 are under arrest pending trial and 96 have been convicted and are serving their time. Detention warrants are outstanding for 167 journalists who are living in exile or remain at large in Turkey.

@shadowblade145 5 лет назад

@JR Could you elaborate? If your point is that their journalistic standards have fallen to maintain revenue streams from viewers, then I think that could be perfectly defensible. However, if your opinion rests solely on "CNN is fake news", then I worry that perhaps Donald Trump's "enemy of the people" rhetoric is working horrifically well. Not only that, but CNN was mentioned no where in this thread. Trump did not specify "CNN" is the enemy of the people, he said (in a Tweet, might I add): "The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! They can’t stand the fact that this Administration has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first 2yrs. They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!"

In the Philippines, where I'm from, there is fear that what had happened in Ethiopia might fully erupt. With an anti-terrorism bill at our President's desk, there is a higher chance that journalists and truth seekers can be wrongfully accused as terrorists and arrested for criticizing the government. The problem is not only in corporate media, like Rappler and ABS-CBN but also in smaller independent outlets. They face libel charges, discrimination from the President himself, and even false claims of overthrowing the government. What's worse, some of the 80 journalists killed you mentioned in this video are Filipino Abel's story is a cautionary tale and a reminder that authoritarians will do anything to keep themselves in power.

Abel Wabella is right, the State of Ethiopia is wrong, but that's nothing new. In a small way it's happening in Canada too, no one has been imprisoned and tortured, but in New Brunswick, the Irving family controls all the daily newspapers, has for years and no government has been able to stop them. Sure some former Irving employees have tried to start independent newspapers, but with the Irvings controlling the province, they soon died from lack of advertisers, so only the CBC is the voice of the province since the Irvings also own stock in the CTV network through their stocks in Bell Media and their stocks in the Global TV network too. It's all common knowledge down here, and like a lot of people say, the only thing an Irving newspaper is good for is lining the bottom of the bird cage when you don't see your name in obits.

@@billyandrew Perhaps the lack of coverage lies in the fact that there are hundreds of such incidents around the globe and the audience (Americans, in this context) would likely not take an interest in a single person being arrested in a far-off country? They would be more likely to do an aggregate story on how there are more journalists being suppressed than in years passed than to do hundreds of individual stories unless that individual is somehow related to something more close to home (i.e.Khashoggi and Trump's response to it). To put it simply, there are thousands of news stories that truly demand our attention daily, but only a handful of them we'll actually read about because there isn't enough time in the day to see everything.

Abel is my hero too! He and his zone9 blogger friends inspired a whole generation about speaking up. They taught us we don’t have to be politicians or journalists to speak up about equality and democracy. We are citizens and we don’t stand on the side ! Citizens brought the regime to its knees and there are some changes ! We will always speak up and keep the government in check.

journalism is the key - real journalism with full investigative power. the press often just a gossip, covering behind "opinion".

Should've approached Nord vpn for a juicy royalty-filled sponsor. Lol thank you for not... But if there ever was a video to promote online anonymity.

Authorities can very easily find that you are using VPN. It has a characteristic traffic.

while i was watching this video i was having a difficult time understanding what was being said so i turned on the closed captions expecting the usual gibberish youtube captions are and i figured i would just try to get a sense of what was being said through that. but to my great surprise the captions were perfect! i thought it was really cool.

@polyroguegames5820 5 лет назад

That's because you can provide a transcript to be used as captions. They did that for this video.

We are ALL flawed, imperfect. We all make mistakes along the way. But those politicians label enemies you should distrust them and take a critical eye to find what really is.

It's weird to see that even though a certain country mentioned at 8:36 isn't welcomed in Ethiopia, their treatments to people voicing for democracy turn out to be so similar.
